DESCRIPTION
This area lies in the flatlands of south western Zimbabwe, Rich soils and open spaces make this area a seemingly perfect environment to hold large numbers of plains game and cats, During the dark days of the Zimbabwean political crisis this area was under huge pressure however thankfully since our involvement there the plains game first and now the elephant and cat population has also increased hugely. Well suited to archery hunting this area gives adventure bowhunters a realistic opportunity to spot and stalk African plains game a rarity in itself.
HUNTING
With a large area to cover, this concession is best hunted on foot, hunters will start out by moving to likely areas where the guides believe the intended species will be , from here playing to the wind the hunters will slowly move in an effort to find something to put a stalk on, for this to go well everything has to be right so patience is key. In the midday heat lone bulls of various species if spotted can be approached successfully if the wind plays ball - slow periods can be spent in treestands/ambush positions where game movement is likely (this will not be done over an artificial food source or artificial water point)
